Weddings are in full bloom for summer, and here is a picture of a flower girl with a loose updo and lovely white petals pinned on one side of her head. This little gal has naturally curly hair which is gently pulled up and secured in an old fashioned way. She has brown hair that is in nice contrast to her dress and flowers. This look would be beautiful for communion as well.

Paula Abdul has a sense about American Idol and here we celebrate her medium length layered hair that has a disheveled appearance but is more than appropriate for any occasion even formal. Her  long bangs brush over her eyes and the ends bend up slightly as they hit the shoulders. Her brown hair is lightly sprinkled with highlights. Her white strapless dress is full of feathers and makes quite a fashion statement.

Emmy Rossum has a wonderful example of a pretty long formal hairstyle with jeweled headband accessory and loose curls. This would be a great look for Prom or any other special evening event. She has cascading locks that flow down her back past her shoulder blades as this look is very feminine and sexy with a backless or open back dress. Her bangs are pushed back and tucked under her headband to show off her beautiful face. Her lovely brown eyes match her rich brown hair. Her pick lipstick is a great complimentary color.
